Canucks to face Super champs

A representative Queensland Reds XV will give Canada one final hit-out ahead of their World Cup campaign when the two clash in an opposed training session at Ballymore on Tuesday.

Canada is currently putting the finishing touches on their preparations for the World Cup and will compete in the opposed session just four days after their encounter with the Australian Barbarians at Skilled Park on Friday.

The Queensland XV will include available Reds squad members, Reds Academy representatives and select Premier club players.

The session will be played in quarters over 80 minutes and will be the final appearance made by the Canadians before they travel to New Zealand for the commencement of the World Cup on September 9.

Canada, who are part of Pool A alongside World Cup hosts New Zealand, France, Japan and Tonga, begin their World Cup campaign on September 14 against the Tongans.
